60% Recycled Polyester / 40% Polyester

Wastes are valuable.

We
use recycled polyester from used plastic bottles. A fabric is made
through the process of milling, melting and weaving. Around 50 bottles
are used to make a performance jacket. For a boardshort, two dozen.

Carbon Footprint

We
are able to track our carbon footprint at each processing stage of a
product’s lifecycle. From the raw materials to the factory and from
transportation to product use and end of life. We can assess and compare
our production to a conventional industrial production, then translate
our emissions-savings into kilometers travelled by car, for a clear and
understandable information.

Additionally, we use Higg Index as a
tool to assess the impact of the raw materials on different aspects
(carbon emissions, water consumption and water eutrophication) and guide
design.

Vegan

Animal
welfare is part of our interests in sustainability. Important issues
come out of down, feathers, leather and wool sourcing because of the
harsh treatments on animals. More and more, we look for alternatives to
animal products. Synthetic down, polyurethane leather, bio-based
materials. Alternative solutions are available.

Longterm factory process improvement

Since
2009 only 2 factories produce more than 80% of our products and we have
been business partners. It is a key benefit to involve our suppliers
and get involved in the supply chain.

Beyond the basic business
relationship between a brand and its suppliers, a long term partnership
allows to build trust, gain knowledge and find solutions to specific
environmental and social issues.

Durable PFC-free water-repellent treatment

100%
of our performance products use PFC free water repellent treatments.
PFCs (perfluorocarbons) are chemical substances that have been used
widely and for a long time in the outerwear industry to give water
resistance to textile products.

During production and even during
usage, a piece of clothing will release PFC into the air, harmful
particules to human and the environment. Our solution to prevent this is
Teflon EcoElite™, which is PFC free and offer a similar durability.
